In this episode, I invited Rupen Paul - who is a Stand-up comedian, owner of two podcasts, host at Finshots and also a blogger.
We spoke why Rupen chose the comic life, about his advice for people who are just starting out, and about his theory of Equalization. We discussed why Managers don't laugh at Corporate Events and about that one time where he didn't get paid!
And, Rupen told me who his favorite comic was - which blew me away!

(29:12): His favorite comic, which is the same as mine. (BILL BURR!)
